As Aboriginal Affairs critic for the NDP, I have been proud to listen alongside our Leader, Tom Mulcair and our Northern Affairs critic, Dennis Bevington to Yukon First Nations and Yukoners. Together, we brought the messages from Yukon to Parliament. S-6 cannot be supported. We have been clear; First Nations deserve a federal government that will work, nation-to- nation, and respect the work of Yukon Environmental and Socio-economic Assessment Act. Ottawa should not be dictating to First Nations and Yukoners. As Official Opposition, we made every effort to make sure that Yukon voices were being heard loud and clear throughout the process. In Ottawa, our Leader Tom Mulcair hosted Yukon First Nations to hear concerns first hand. In Ottawa and Whitehorse, we met with Yukon First Nations, Yukon leaders, members of the legislature, members of community and environmental organizations, members of industry and Yukoners who were part of putting together YESAA. The messages we heard guided our opposition in Parliament.

ABSTRACT Child labours constituted a visible and important element of the urban landscape in late 19th centuq Saint John, New Brunswick. Hundreds of children found employment selling newspapers, taking in sewing. driving teams or working in one of the cityfs numerous factories or retail establishments. Working-class boys and girls went to work because their families needed their earnings to make ends meet and because employers required a cheap and productive workforce. The visibility of urban child labourers and their harsh working conditions attracted the attention of local progressive-minded reformers. These men and women endorsed a collectivist philosophy which downplayed individual rights and stressed the need for state intervention in the private sphere to improve social conditions.
